Pasta Hut, special delivery
Oct 13, 2008 Sounds Like Pop
The caller dials 755 2525 1300 88 25 25.
Operator: Hello, Pasta Hut. Can I help you?
Caller: Pasta what?
Operator: Pasta Hut.
Caller: Oh, sorry wrong number. *click*
Umm, in case you guys didn’t get it, the caller was actually looking to call Pizza Hut. But that conversation might not be so strange in the future. Already, in Britain, the pizza franchise is about to change their name to Pasta Hut.
Their reasoning? In Britain, more people eat pasta than pizza.
Wow.
Anyway, the article states that they will “temporarily” change their name, so I don’t know if it’s long-term or if it’s a worldwide rebranding. I personally think it’s a stupid idea, but I suppose we’ll have to wait for the numbers to find out if it’s a successful campaign or not, huh?
